Teaching
I am passionate about teaching applied mathematics and its applications to biological systems. Below you’ll find courses I’ve taught, along with available course materials.
Teaching Philosophy
I believe in making mathematics accessible and relevant by:
- Connecting theory to applications - Every mathematical concept is motivated by real-world problems
- Active learning - Students learn best by doing, not just listening
- Computational tools - Modern mathematics requires computational thinking
- Collaborative environment - Learning happens through discussion and peer interaction
